What it’s like working with Mia?

Mia doesn’t lead with formulas—she leads with presence.

She listens deeply, helping you cut through the noise and access the voice that feels true—not just polished.

With over 30 years of expertise, in performance, leadership coaching, and somatic practice, she brings grounded clarity and deep attunement to every session.

Her clients—executives, founders, and creatives—often come seeking confidence in communication, but leave with something more enduring: a felt sense of connection, conviction, and calm they can carry into every room.

This transformational work now lives inside The Presence Advantage™—Mia’s flagship coaching experience rooted in the VOICE Method™, a five-phase process designed to bring voice and leadership into full alignment. It’s the same deep, intuitive coaching she’s known for—now held inside a structure that helps clients trust the path and track their growth.

As a fourth-generation Japanese-American, with recent discoveries expanding her connection to ancestral roots across Southern Europe and beyond, Mia honors the complexity of identity—how the known and unknown, the inherited and the chosen, shape how we show up and lead.

She meets you exactly where you are, helping you reconnect with your voice and step into leadership with clarity, confidence, and authenticity.
